Butler: Today is the day, Napoleon. (41)

      Napoleon: Miaow?

      Butler: Today, we shall strike.

      Napoleon: Miaow?

      Butler: You want to know how? We shall eliminate the main obstacle on the way to our enrichment. (42) We shall eliminate Madame. The other day, Madame said that people are mortal. But the trick is, they are “suddenly mortal”. (43) No one will suspect foul play (44) if an old woman should suddenly die. (45) Lots of things can happen to an old woman, you know. She may eat something that disagrees with her (46), or slip and fall down the stairs – you name it! (47) Do you follow me? (48)

      Napoleon: Mew.

      Butler: Smart boy. Look what I’ve got for you. Cream. Top quality cream. Eat! Get used to the good things of life. (49)
